Subject: [PATCH 5.4 12/66] nbd: prevent memory leak

From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@...il.com>

commit 03bf73c315edca28f47451913177e14cd040a216 upstream.

In nbd_add_socket when krealloc succeeds, if nsock's allocation fail the
reallocted memory is leak. The correct behaviour should be assigning the
reallocted memory to config->socks right after success.
